Last year, I was in the market for a new pair of street boots. I looked mostly to my favorite boot brands: Alpinestars and Sidi. However, since I am a bit anal when it comes to my riding gear, I did an exhaustive search. In this search, the Oxtar brand kept coming up. I have to admit, I knew little about this marquee at the time. Even though in the end I decided on a different brand, I came away impressed with what I learned about Oxtar's reputation.
The TCX Competizione RS by Oxtar is an uncompromising boot for the racer or serious sport rider. Its list of features point to it as a boot that will offer unparalleled protection. It offers what the company labels as a Torsion Control System as well as a Metatarsal Control System. Obviously, the makers of the boot are concerned about the rider's foot. Because this is a competition boot, it offers steel "non-sparking" toe sliders and polyurethane heel sliders. For durability, it has a reinforced shift pad and an oil and petroleum-resistant sole.
As far as styling goes, this is a true racer's boot, and it looks the part. Its graphics are pleasing but may not be subtle enough for the everyday street rider. In the end, this is a serious boot for the serious street rider.
